Autumn Fashion Trends 2018: Caramel | Colour of the season

Guess what? 70’s colours are back! Roskanda, Miu Miu, Chloe and Isabel Marant are just a few designers that showcased shades of caramel, toffee and beige at AW 18. The little black dress can take the back seat because nude and caramel colours are must haves in a women’s wardrobe this season. I already love this trend and it didn’t take long until I was already in deep research about it. By the end of this article, you’ll feel you want to join the team of caramel lovers.

Curious about how to wear this trend? You can opt for ponchos, knitted dresses and oversized jumpers, but also for elegant T-shirts you can wear with a checked blazer (another must have of the season). And talking about caramel, I would love a caramel latte right now – it will totally complete an Autumn outfit, right?

Wearing Caramel in Autumn 2018

Choosing from a lot of options, can become an actual task, and guessing by how busy all of us are, I am sure that browsing loads of magazines for inspiration is fun at first… but then when it comes to looking for items online, not knowing what to pick can be a bit time consuming. But, don’t worry! I’ve got you covered.

I found myself this simple caramel, but trés chic T-shirt in New Look. Its black edges got me though – a simple t-shirt with a twist. Remember this trick from me: to create a statement outfit, every item should have something that makes it special. Keep your eyes on nice items, even though it’s a simple T-shirt, you never know how it might upgrade your look.

The perfect colour scheme for Autumn’s hottest caramel

You can wear caramel this season by pairing it with black, white, yellow or even dark green. I feel it’s a classic colour that makes a statement of a comeback every time and it’s just a matter of preference and unique personality that dictates on what colour to wear it with. Don’t you?

The Caramel Outfit Checklist

In today’s outfit, I’ve picked black as a complementary colour, because the two look so luxurious together and opted for a faux leather skirt as I know it will keep me warm in early September. The cloche black skirt goes perfectly with the slim T-shirt, because when wearing a ‘baggy’ skirt, you would want your shirt to complement it. Remember what I said about wearing ‘special’ items only? Take a close look at the skirt’s edges –a wonderful embroidery lets the skin be seen through and adds a subtle sexy element to the whole outfit. Get ready to embrace this trend and feel amazing while doing so.

Next…Accessorise it

Let’s take advantage! This is the only time of the year when knee-high boots can be worn with a skirt (from a weather forecast point of view). I love wearing skirts with boots, as the skin gap above the knee makes the outfit stand out more. You have to try this in Autumn!
